Unsealing the Raven of Curse

Thud!

Baili Wudi slammed into the ground, blood spilling everywhere.

His eyes were filled with disbelief.

His heart had been pierced!

Was he really going to die at the hands of someone at the Eighth Heaven, someone he had looked down on?

"I... I refuse to accept this!"

Baili Wudi roared.

He had been one step away from obtaining the Divine Core.

Why?

Why had he fallen just before reaching it?

He was the Patriarch of the Baili Family, a future King.

He had so many ambitions left unrealized.

He had yet to reach the pinnacle of his life.

Worse... he had just killed his own son and had not yet fathered a new heir with a better Bloodline.

How could he fall here?!

"You brought this on yourself! You had your place as the Baili Family Patriarch, but you insisted on colluding with the Raven of Curse! You had so many loyal Personal Guards at your side, but you fed them to the Cursed Black Vine and killed them with your own hands! You even killed your own son!"

Feng Yunqi's voice was hoarse and distorted, but his tone was unwavering.

"Baili Wudi, you brought about your own death!"

"I... brought about my own death?"

Baili Wudi felt his life draining away. His blood was flowing out, and his body was growing cold.

Death was almost upon him.

In the final moments of his life, Baili Wudi suddenly struggled upright.

"No, I did nothing wrong! It was you. This was all your fault! Feng Yunqi, die!"

A Golden Longsword took shape and shot toward Feng Yunqi.

Even if he, Baili Wudi, had to die, he would take Feng Yunqi with him!

"I'm no traitor! I'm a hero—the hero who killed the monster!"

Baili Wudi burst into wild laughter.

"Captain!"
